The Cleveland Cavaliers will play for their first NBA title Sunday.
The Cavs outlasted the Golden State Warriors Thursday night, 115-101, in a game they never trailed. LeBron James went Saiyan again (43 points on 59% shooting, 8 rebounds, and 11 assists). Stephen Curry, the alleged MVP, got ejected in the fourth quarter after he fouled out, causing him to throw his mouthguard in anger at Dan Gilbert's son, who was waving him goodbye. (He apologized before hitting the showers early.)
A rising tide lifts all ships in Ohio, and Buckeye Twitter was on fire as the Cavs clawed their way back to even the series 3-3.
To the tweets!
Klay has the worst shot selection in the NBA!!!!!
